2 Safety Instructions 2.1 Electric Shock Prevention WARNING While power is on or when the FC 3500 DC is running, do not open the top cover of the housing. You may get an electric shock. Do not run the FC 3500 DC with the top-cover removed. Otherwise, you may access the exposed high-voltage parts and get an electric shock. Before starting wiring or inspection, switch power off, wait for more than 1 minutes. Ground the FC 3500 DC. Any person who is involved in the wiring or inspection of this equipment should be fully competent to do the work. Always install the FC 3500 DC before wiring. Otherwise you may get an electric shock or be injured. Operate only with dry hands to prevent an electric shock or be injured. Do not subject the cables to scratches, excessive stress, heavy loads or pinching. Otherwise, you may get an electric shock. Do not change anything while power is on. It is dangerous to change while the power is on. 2.2 Fire Prevention CAUTION Mount the FC 3500 DC on an incombustible surface. Installing the equipment directly on or near a combustible surface could lead to a fire. If the FC 3500 DC has become faulty, switch off the FC 3500 DC power. Mount the FC 3500 DC in ventilated area s only. 2.3 Injury Prevention CAUTION Apply only the voltage specified in the instruction manual to each terminal to prevent damage. Ensure that the cables are connected to the correct terminals. Otherwise, damage may occur. Always make sure that polarity is correct to prevent damage. Page 5 of 23

2.4 Additional Instructions Also note the following points to prevent an accidental failure, injury, electric shock, etc. Transportation and Installation CAUTION Ensure that installation position and material can withstand the weight of the FC 3500 DC. Install according to the information in the Instruction Manual. Do not operate if the FC 3500 DC is damaged or has parts missing. Do not stand or rest heavy objects on the FC 3500 DC. Prevent screws, wire fragments or other conductive bodies or oil or other flammable substance from entering the FC 3500 DC. Place during installation a covering plate over the FC 3500 DC to prevent metal powder, from drilling activity, being fallen into the unit. Remove covering plate always after finishing installation otherwise, it will give a negative effect on the ventilation of the unit. And the unit can even be overheated by it. Do not drop the FC 3500 DC or subject it to impact. Use the FC 3500 DC under the environmental conditions given in the technical data. Wirring CAUTION Use only cables and wiring capable of withstanding temperatures of 70 O C. It is recommended to use insulation-sleeved solderless terminals for power supply, heater, valve and fan wiring. Connect wires only when the unit is switched off. Any person who is involved in the wiring or inspection of this equipment should be fully competent to do the work. Check if the nominal supply voltage from the FC 3500 DC is equal to the AC-supply voltage. A incorrect power supply voltage can lead to fire, injury or failure. Place interrupters, capable of switching off frequency controllers, like automatic-mccbfuses, between the power supply and the FC 3500 DC and take other safety actions to prevent short-circuit in the external wiring. If no safety action is installed, this can lead to fire, injury or failure. Take care for correct wiring which is firmly mounted otherwise measurement mismatch, injury or damage to the unit can occur. Do not connect a AC supply to the outputs terminals of fan, heater or water valve. This can lead to damage or failure of the unit. Page 6 of 23

WARNING Do not attach signal-data cables (display, RS485, sensors, I/O, etc.) to live cables, antenna cables or cables with interference signals. Distance between signal-data cables and cables with interference should be more than 30cm but the absolute minimum should be 10cm. Better is to have separate cable channels for signal-data cables and cables with interference signals (Cable channels with separation must be in full metal). Trial Run CAUTION Check all parameters, and ensure that the machine will not be damaged by a sudden startup. Emergency Stop CAUTION Provide a safety backup such as an emergency brake which will prevent the machine and equipment from hazardous conditions if the FC 3500 DC fails. Operation WARNING Do not modify the equipment The electronic over-current protection does not guarantee protection of the motor from overheating. Do not use a magnetic contactor on the FC 3500 DC input for frequent starting/stopping of the FC 3500 DC. Before changing the settings of the FC 3500 DC fully examine the performances of the motor. Before running a FC 3500 DC which had been stored for a long period, always perform inspection and test operation. For a good performance the FC 3500 DC must be installed in a room which is not applied to extreme temperature changes. When the FC 3500 DC is mounted in a closed switchboard panel this panel should have a cooling fan or airco to provide an ambient temperature of maximum 40 o C. The case temperature of the FC 3500 DC may be 30/C higher than the ambient temperature. Page 7 of 23

Maintenance, Inspection and Parts Replacement CAUTION Check the environment of the FC 3000 DC regularly, to obtain good working conditions. Do not carry out a megger (insulation resistance) test on the control circuit of the FC 3500 DC. Replace parts only when the FC 3500 DC is switched off, wait 10 minutes and then open up the unit to replace the needed part. Disposing of the unit Treat as industrial waste. CAUTION General instructions CAUTION Many of the drawings and diagrams in this manual show the FC 3500 DC without a cover, or partially open. Never operate the unit like this. Always replace the cover and follow this manual when operating the FC 3500 DC. Page 8 of 23

5 Control To control the FC 3500 DC fan control, a display-unit should be connected to it. Standard is the FC 3500 BP (4 button display-unit, see appendix A) connected at the RS485 Network connection of the controller. Normally the display unit shows the room temperature. In case of an error the unit displays the error code (see chapter 7). Press any key to acknowledge the error. Now the unit alternates the room temperature and the error code until the error is solved. At this chapter the control is explained for the FC 3500 BP display unit. 5.1 Switching the control-unit on or off Press the ON/OFF key to turn the controller on or off. 5.2 Adjusting the temperature set point Press the RAISE or LOWER key to view the current temperature set point. A blinking t indicates that this mode is selected. Use the RAISE or LOWER key to raise or lower the set point. Page 11 of 23

5.3 Adjusting the fan speed Press the FAN key to view the fan speed setting. The LED FAN will lit. Select with the RAISE or LOWER key the fan speed. (NB. It may not always be possible to lower the fan speed due to requirements for heating or boosting. In that case the new fan speed will be set when the room is on temperature). 5.4 Adjusting the fan speed without temperature control Switch the control-unit off. Adjust the fan speed as above. To switch the fan off, the fan speed should be 0. 5.5 Viewing other measurements Press the RAISE and LOWER key simultaneously to enter a submenu where you can select the following readouts with the RAISE and LOWER keys: ct : Water temperature rh : Relative humidity orh : Outside relative humidity ot : Outside temperature Press the FAN key to view the value (the value is shown direct and stays in the display for 5 seconds). After five seconds the normal readout reappears. Page 12 of 23

6 Programming Parameters To access the parameter mode; Switch the unit off with the ON/OFF key. Press the LOWER key for more than 10 seconds. You are asked to enter an access code. Use the RAISE and LOWER keys to enter a digit. Use the FAN key to move on to the next digit. The access code is 671. If the code is entered correctly you will see P10. The access mode will remain active for five minutes after leaving the parameter mode. After entering the parameter mode, select a parameter by pressing the RAISE or LOWER key. After selecting the desired parameter press the FAN key to view the value of the selected parameter. By pressing the FAN key simultaneously with the RAISE or LOWER key the value of de selected parameter can be changed. The changed value(s) of the parameters will be stored into the memory after leaving the parameter mode for 30 seconds. The next pages show the parameter table. Within this table the following notes are applicable (placed after the parameter numbers). These parameters are only active with monitoring system (PC). To use humidity-control, a humidity sensor must be connected to Optional Sensor1. Is this humidity sensor a RH95/2 sensor, than connect as follows; +12V to pin3 (dc+) of RH95/2 (V+ Supply humidity sensor), Signal to pin2 (rh+) of RH95/2 (Signal 0-1Vdc = 0-100%RH) and GND to pin1 (dc-) of RH95/2 (Common 0V) Also set the Optional sensor1 input selection jumper J30 to volt, see connections Page 13 of 23

Additional explanation of parameter: 6.2 Night temperature offset (P70) During nighttime it is possible to give the set point an offset of parameter P70 (-10..10 K/- 18..18 F) degrees, which lowers the normal set point. F.i.: Set point at 20 C, and P70=+5 K gives at nighttime a set point of (20 C - (+5 K) )= 15 C or Set point at 20 C, and P70=-7 K gives at nighttime a set point of (20 C - (-7 K)) = 27 C. 7 Error codes During operation the following error codes may occur; Error code E1 E2 E3 Description Room temperature sensor failure Water temperature sensor failure Outside temperature sensor failure EF1 Fan failure Fan 1 EF2 Fan failure Fan 2 EF3 Fan failure Fan 3 EF4 Fan failure Fan 4 7.1 Trouble shooting Error codes Solution E1, E2, E3 Replace the sensor.
